COVID-19 Update:

GOVA is preparing for a gradual reopening of its regular public transit service in alignment with the first stage of the Province of Ontario’s restart plan.

• Beginning Monday, June 15, front-door boarding and fare collection will resume on all GOVA Transit buses.
• Installation of temporary clear plastic shields in the operator area of all buses will physically distance employees and passengers boarding through the front doors and using the fare box.
• The Downtown Transit Hub at 9 Elm St. will reopen for sales of GOVA Transit Ride Cards and Passes on Monday, June 8. The indoor waiting area and washrooms remain closed until further notice.
• 31-Day Passes that expired after the suspension of transit fares on March 19, 2020 will be replaced at the Downtown Ticket Kiosk to compensate for number of days remaining.
• Reduced schedules and suspended routes will continue through the summer to deploy two buses whenever possible at peak times on heavier travelled routes.
